only when under sail alone and crossing the path of the powerboat
The question should be "When is the sailboat the stand-on vessel...? The answer is if the sailboat has an engine and if it is in operation, the sailboat is treated as a power boat in determining stand-on status. The right-of-way would then follow the rules for power boats.
The sailboat is generally considered the stand-on vessel when encountering a recreational powerboat, provided the sailboat is under sail and not using its engine. According to the "Rules of the Road" for navigation, the powerboat must give way to the sailboat. However, if the sailboat is under power or the two vessels are on a collision course with the sailboat to windward, the powerboat may need to take evasive action. Always, both vessels should be vigilant and act to avoid collisions.

A sailboat is considered the stand-on vessel in relation to a recreational powerboat when the two are approaching each other, and the sailboat is under sail and not using its engine. In this scenario, the powerboat, which is typically more maneuverable, must give way to the sailboat. However, if the sailboat is under power, both vessels must adhere to the rules of the road based on their respective situations. Always consult local navigation rules for specific guidance.
